Mr. Posner can continue to pretend that his vast knowledge trumps 200 years of Congressional and Presidential and Supreme court precedent.
He's right in the ridiculous assertion that he could just invite anyone to attack the US with impunity and pretend that 9/11, the Cole, the embassy attacks never happened. I wonder how long his administration would last after that.
The President doesn't live in Mr. Posner's fairy tale world.
Of course, there is still the problem of where to send the ex prisoners, which Posner avoids. Since no country will take many of them, in fact many are not sent "home" because their "home" governments are likely to torture them. That would be like rendition, which I guess is Okay by Posner. About 40 Chinese prisoners were accepted by the Philippines.
Where would Mr. Posner send the rest, maybe if Congress would allow them to live in the US, church groups could sponsor and protect them.
Oh, right, Posner claims that the President is a dictator, and apparently is advocating that he seize even more power.
I had the erroneous idea that we expected our Presidents to try to follow the Constitution.
BTW Mr. Posner, President Obama signed an executive order closing Guantanamo prison. He has been prevented from carrying it out by Congressional action including a law preventing the prisoners from being transferred or released in the USA. That's why this claim of yours is so stupid. The President is not a dictator and I expect him to obey our laws.

“Obama moves detainees to U.S. soil where they will remain forever.”
